In the Augustus family saga, author, Tamara Merrill, has woven a very tangled web, and Sharon Chatsworth loves to talk about it in her gossip column. The drama that unfolds in the first volume of the Augustus family trilogy revolves around the cash cow matrimony of John Augustus and his beautiful débuante yet problematic wife, Sylvia Alexander. Not only do they have money, they have merged every which way in order to grow their treasure; however, all the money in the world can't ensure the happiness of Sylvia and John. This page turner of a book sets the reader up for the second volume. The books focus on the emotional trials and tribulations of marriage and family life. A dynasty, love children, gossip, alcoholism, adultery, war, life and death are all artfully addressed in this book. The description of characters, their mannerisms and emotions are so well-described that it allows the reader to visualize them every step of the way. They are fabulous reads that leave these characters on your mind and yearning to read how they will fare. In FAMILY MYTHS, the dramatic final chapter of the Augustus Family Trilogy.

Autorenporträt

Tamara Merrill is the author of the Amazon bestselling books, Shadows In Our Bones and The Augustus Family Trilogy. Her work has been published in fourteen anthologies, numerous magazines, and online publications. She fell in love with books at a very early age-all books, any genre. She reads incessantly and perhaps, as Louise May Alcott said, "She is too fond of books, and it has turned her brain." While reading may keep her from writing every day, it is also why she writes. Read-ing the Betsy-Tacy books by Maud Hart Lovelace caused her to pro-claim herself an author and resulted in her first published work, in the American Girl magazine, when she was nine years old.Tamara enjoys writing in many genres, including short stories, lit-erary fiction, historical fiction, humor, nonfiction technical manuals, and how-to articles. You might expect that she would blog, but she seldom does. Tamara finds writing inspiration anywhere and everywhere. The book you hold in your hand grew out of her interest in crows and their significance in mythology and folklore. The crow is a highly intelli-gent bird capable of social interaction. Perhaps it's true that Never-more told Tamara this story.Tamara currently resides in Coronado, California and Wickenburg, Arizona. She is available to speak at book clubs, writers and readers events,` and teaches writing skills in the adult education system.Learn more about Tamara at: www.tamaramerrill.com.
